    Current Employee - CSA - Customer Service Associate

    I have been working at Walgreens full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    Great benefits, room for growth, and fairly simple job

    Cons

    Upper management can be rude depending what location

    Advice to Management

    Everyone works for Walgreens who's in the building, so even if you're a manager please help when lines get long or to help with daily tasks instead of "being too good" to do certain tasks.
